FiddzyDesign – Concept Artwork

The two creature designs below came from the work produced for this weeks conceptart.org Creature of the Week (C.O.W) contest, C.O.W #169 Beautiful Rebirth. The aim of this contest was to pick a monster from fiction that has or might off scared you, then redesign it as a cute and beautiful creature. For my entry I picked the Critter aliens from the Critter film series, a race of hairy, toothed and ugly murderous alien rodents.

Beautiful Rebirth – My Pet Critter

This first image was my entry into the C.O.W Beautiful Rebirth contest. Taking the Critter alien and merging it with hamster like qualities to give it a cuter more innocent appearance, then imagining what it would be like to take it and give it a makeover, with pink candy floss like hair giving it embedded beauty while still keeping the essence of the creatures unpleasant nature.

Krytammer

This second image was a redesigned version of my C.O.W entry, used to create my own horrid alien rodent, the garbage eating Krytammer.

Po Po Nuff – “Koala Crab”

The rather bizarre Po Po Nuff was a somewhat random creation made from my desire to create something cute, yet creepy. Its alien appearance draws its inspiration from many real world animals including koala’s, bushbabies and even species of small single clawed dinosaur called a Shuvuuia.

Psittacodu

Semi-Fun Fact: The Psittacodu, appearance is based on a genus of parrot beaked Dinosaurs known as Psittacosaurus.

Jeepeg

Semi-Fun Fact: The Jeepeg’s design came from mixing elements from both an eastern world dragon and a ferret. Its name, Jeepeg, is a pun on the file format, JPEG.
